strange "unstable" problem [SOLVED]

Hey there,

wanted to test out beryl from the unstable repository.
my entry in pacman.conf looks like this (order of all entries NOT changed)

ftp://ftp.belnet.be/packages/archlinux/unstable/os/i686

When i type this in my internet browser i can see the packages. but not in pacman when searching for them :S
Whats going on :oops:

Re: strange "unstable" problem [SOLVED]

you entry may be incorrect...
it muist be preceeded by
[unstable]

so it should ideally be ... like hridibg's

[unstable]
Server = ftp://ftp.belnet.be/packages/archlinux/unstable/os/i686

Re: strange "unstable" problem [SOLVED]

The unstable.db.tar.gz on that mirror hasn't been updated yet. Probably the server hasn't fully sync yet (check the  main server) or the db hasn't been generated yet.

Re: strange "unstable" problem [SOLVED]

yes it is...
only thing i can think of right now is..
have you updated the db ...

pacman -Sy

or maybe just install them ...

pacman -Sy emerald-svn emerald-themes-svn beryl-core-svn beryl-dbus-svn beryl-manager-svn beryl-plugins-svn beryl-settings-svn

btw i tried searching for them too ... only the dbus plugin came up ..
this suggests mirror syncing.. i get this a lot, you might just wanna wait a lil while longer ... they should be there now.. they r for me ...
